Okay so I visited Maria's Soul And Latin today. I was so turned off by the disgusting looking food I turned a Nd walked out. Food doesn't look fresh. Meats looked dry sides not fresh.O overall the place needs to close down. Just my opinion. I would be embarrassed for people to see the disgusting food that is served. It seems the people leaving the great reviews have NEVER had really GREAT food.

This is my Go-to restaurant when I want a taste of southern comfort with a Latin twist. I usually get the honey baked chicken for my family with mixed vegetables, greens, Mac, potato salad and yams. Everything is always delicious. The strawberry cake is fantastic. It reminds me of my old neighbor from Mississippi. She was a baker and made moist, yummy cakes.

Maria’s is a spot I’ve been meaning to check out and I’m glad I finally did! There’s tons of meats and sides to choose from. I ended up getting the baked chicken, Mac & Cheese, mixed vegetables, and yams. Everything came up to about 15 dollars for lunch. They offer a place to dine inside, separate from the food area. Everything was delicious and seasoned to perfection. The yams were the star of the show, hints of brown sugar with every bite. The chicken was a little dry but it was cooked on a grill so I wasn’t even mad. Overall, it was a solid experience and I plan on checking them out again.

Delicious!! Freshly made empanadillas are to die for.

So I was looking for a dope soul food restaurant to try… and I have been to all the ones in Hartford and meridian and they are okay… found this place and was I pleased, HELL YEA I brought so many goodies and I mean everything was so good I had to pull back over and go back inside to tell her that it was bussing. And also gave her a handclap. Cause honey she deserved that, very professional, clean inside her restaurant. Everyone so friendly and nice and I’m not use to that… you literally get the best of all worlds going in their. I said to my wife she must have a black husband lol nah for real tho y’all can cook. Portions are amazing, prices are reasonable and affordable. I feel the price for my food was cheap and should have been more, compared to all the things I purchased with four drinks 4 sides, two meals with two desserts. Most importantly your getting quality food. That takes time and preparation and lots of love. Coming from a food Critic hands down amazing.. and girl that banana pudding omg I wanted to drive back from Hartford and shake ya hand ?? thank you so much for an amazing experience and i promise my greedy butt will be seeing you soon! If you guys haven’t given this spot a try, what you waiting for? Y’all missing out!! PERIODT

Food horrible. Dinosaur chicken and ribs. Bland mushy rice tasted left over. Potato salad is mayo with salt and pepper smh. Mac n cheese was the only good thing I tasted. Unsatisfactory. OVERRATED!

First time here and it was amazing ! Definitely coming back !

siento decirlo pues pague por un catering para la boda de mi hijo y nadie comio. la comida no estuvo buena...

The food is on point.... fresh... and the desert is the best ?.....

I came in and the staff served me right away. I ordered the rice with pigeon peas with the pork and Mac and cheese and I got a free corn bread. It came out to be 17 dollars and some change , not bad for the huge portion of rice and pork. The food was hot which I loved. The rice with pigeon peas was too bland for my taste. The pork was tasty the mac and cheese was so delicious and the corn bread was moist I loved the taste.
